Why are the Talismans I Drawn Banned Again?! Chapter 314 – Chapter 314: Chapter 244 The Enchantress of the Dayan Sect is also an Enchantress_2

Chapter 314: Chapter 244 The Enchantress of the Dayan Sect is also an Enchantress_2
Yusheng was a dog's tail grass in the Lotus University's Spirit Plant Garden, possessing the cultivation level of Nascent Soul. He had advanced his cultivation by the enlightenment of an old elm tree. Initially a plant monster, he was later given a position by the Tongtian Sect. Within the sect, he belonged to no particular division or faction and did not involve himself in the struggles for power between the various sects. This made him a suitable mediator.

Jian Youqiu nodded, “That's good. Let's have Elder Yusheng return to the Tongtian Sect first to gather information for us. As soon as there's a suitable elder interested in Jiang Cheng, we'll immediately request their help to allow Jiang Cheng to bypass the general examination and hurry to join the Tongtian Sect!”

Faced with the united front of the Capital branch of the Tongtian Sect, Yusheng naturally found it difficult to refuse.

He repeatedly assured them that once he returned to the Tongtian Sect, he would contact potential candidates at the earliest opportunity.

Because the journey between Liang Kingdom and the main branch of the Tongtian Sect was extremely long, cultivators from Liang Kingdom who wanted to return generally chose to travel via the Gen Mountain Branch's Teleportation Array.

With the aid of the Teleportation Array, a journey of tens of thousands of miles could be completed in an instant.

However, the cost of using it even once was truly substantial. If it hadn't been for Li Ancheng and the others insisting strongly, Yusheng had actually planned to take his time and enjoy the trip back to the sect. After all, he had no other pressing matters.

After Yusheng returned to the Tongtian Sect, he initially planned to rest for a couple of days, but Helmsman Li sent over a communication talisman after just one day, inquiring about his progress.

Yusheng couldn't figure it out—was Jiang Cheng really that formidable? That Helmsman Li was so eager for updates?

With no other choice, Yusheng had to give up on resting and focus on searching for suitable candidates for Helmsman Li.

If it was just a matter of taking in a disciple, contacting others wouldn't be difficult.

Within the Tongtian Sect, there were numerous factions, with often a single peak representing one transmission of a lineage. There were always those looking to take disciples. Moreover, according to Li Ancheng, Jiang Cheng was not lacking in talent, particularly gifted with a talent for talismans, skilled in drawing them, truly a genius, beyond the reach of ordinary people.

With such standards that weren't poor, it was unlikely he would be wasted.

But Li Ancheng's other request was more troublesome.

He wanted Jiang Cheng's master to ideally possess the following three characteristics: uninvolved, unteaching, and with a profound background.

Yusheng could understand the last trait; who wouldn't want the convenience of having a powerful backer?

But he couldn't comprehend Li Ancheng's first two requirements.

He didn't understand why, when others were searching for a master, they looked for the most capable and renowned, yet when Li Ancheng was searching for a master for Jiang Cheng, he wanted someone idle and uninterested in their disciples?

What was the purpose?

“This is too difficult!”

Yusheng silently heaved a sigh.

Without any other idea, Yusheng had no choice but to head to Broken Arm Peak to seek help from his good friend Jia Shanchuan.

Jia Shanchuan, like Yusheng, was also a monster, though he was a pangolin who had gained sentience; he was later recruited by the Tongtian Sect and was in charge of some internal construction tasks, also a professional in his field.

After listening to Yusheng's request, Jia Shanchuan laughed heartily, “Brother Yusheng, you're missing the forest for the trees.”

“What do you mean?” the dog's tail grass scratched its head.

“Qualifying for discipleship while also being inexperienced in teaching—doesn't that clearly point you towards finding a new peak master? A new peak master who establishes their own sect away from their original one—isn't that someone both busy and inexperienced? In this way, brother, I am actually responsible for the various construction projects within the sect; I will find you a sect candidate from projects initiated five hundred years ago. You'll be able to select a right fit for sure.”

Yusheng thought it sounded feasible, but he didn't understand why they had to look for ones from five hundred years ago.

“Old Jia, why do we need to find candidates from five hundred years ago?”

Jia Shanchuan replied gleefully, “You've never established your own sect, so you don't understand. Tongtian Sect's requirements for a new sect are to have a lineage, which at the very least needs one master and one disciple. The time limit for this requirement is five hundred years. In other words, if a newly established sect goes five hundred years without taking a disciple, it will have its sect qualification revoked.”

Now Yusheng understood.

Although they could also look for newly established sects from the past one or two hundred years, those sects wouldn't necessarily be in a hurry to accept disciples, considering they still had a few hundred years to prepare. But those sects established five hundred years ago that still hadn't taken any disciples were certainly desperate due to the lack of disciples.

“Right, Old Jia, I have another request; that peak master needs to have a strong background!”

“That's even simpler. Who could drag out accepting disciples for over five hundred years and still withstand the sect's pressure without being revoked if not someone with a strong background?”

The more Yusheng listened, the more spirited he became—there was hope!

Real hope!

How had he not thought of this method of selecting people before?

Under the guidance of Jia Shanchuan, Yusheng quickly locked in the candidate for Jiang Cheng's master.

Although there were many sects established in the Tongtian Sect five hundred years ago, there were only a few that hadn't taken disciples nearly five hundred years later. There was only one that had gone beyond five hundred years without accepting a disciple and yet had not had their sect qualification revoked by the main sect.

North Forest Peak, the peak master Master Yun Shu, the daughter of the Wan Yue Mountain Master, with cultivation at the Divinity Transformation Perfection level.

Rumors had it that this woman was idle and unruly, taking advantage of her father being the Wan Yue Mountain Master to act recklessly and wildly, highly gifted but particularly disliking cultivation, let alone the effort to teach someone else to cultivate.

Uninvolved, unteaching, and with a profound background; these three requirements fit perfectly. It was just a matter of whether or not this powerful Divinity Transformation master would agree to take Jiang Cheng as a disciple.

“You're going to the Taixu Sect?”

Jiang Cheng's tone was slightly surprised.

Honestly, when Liang Lu invited him to meet, he feared that Liang Lu would trap him again, repeating the last scenario with the talisman purchase that put him in a difficult position.

However, he did not expect that this time Liang Lu did indeed have important business.

And it's too much like serious business.

“Yes, after I decided not to become the empress, my teachers helped me contact the seniors at Taixu Sect. They said that with my abilities, continuing to stay at Qingxuan University is a waste of time. It's better to enter Taixu Sect for learning and trials sooner,” Liang Lu said.

“That's a good thing, indeed going to Taixu Sect earlier is better for your development,”

Jiang Cheng said objectively.

Although Liang Lu was to enter Taixu Sect earlier, there was no joy on her face.

“What about you?” she asked.

“If nothing unexpected happens, I will take the examination route to enter Tongtian Sect,” Jiang Cheng said.

“Are you sure?”

“Of course.”

Entering Tongtian Sect was the second step of Jiang Cheng's three-step retirement plan, which could not be missed.

Upon hearing Jiang Cheng's definitive response, Liang Lu finally felt much better.

She had inquired about it, and the Immortal Sects were connected by Teleportation Arrays, although they were expensive. In any case, they offered hope. Once her cultivation improved and the resources and status she gained increased accordingly, seeing Jiang Cheng wouldn't be difficult.

“Speaking of which, if you are going to Taixu Sect, what about Lin Yao?” Jiang Cheng asked.

Liang Lu frowned: “She's currently receiving more attention than I am. It stands to reason that if I can enter Taixu Sect early, she shouldn't be doing any worse.”

Jiang Cheng thought about it and felt that some things needed to be said now, or it would be too late once Lin Yao entered Taixu Sect and encountered the Hehuan Sect Elders.

He made a decisive move and chose to send a communication talisman to Lin Yao.

“Hello? Elder Brother Jiang?”

“Liang Lu told me she was going to Taixu Sect, what about you?”

“Hehe, is Elder Brother trying to keep Yao'er? As long as Elder Brother says the word, Yao'er doesn't have to go anywhere,”

“Talk seriously.”

“Hmm… I haven't heard anything yet.”

“Liang Lu and I are at the Immortal Sect Tea House across from Lotus University. Come over and then we'll talk,” Jiang Cheng said.

“Ah? She's there too?”

Lin Yao was quick to arrive, seemingly not wanting to let Liang Lu and Jiang Cheng spend too much time together.

The old rivals met, and the atmosphere was still filled with tension.

It seemed even their glares were clashing.

Jiang Cheng ignored the two of them, took out the Dayan Sect Disciple's roster, and invited Lin Yao to join Dayan Sect.

Lin Yao gladly accepted.

However, upon seeing that Liang Lu was a True Disciple, she demanded to be a True Disciple as well.

These were all minor details.

Jiang Cheng had Lin Yao come here to change the predetermined storyline and let Lin Yao get in touch with Hehuan Sect's cultivation technique ahead of time.

Jiang Cheng realized that instead of letting Lin Yao be swayed by the Elders of the Hehuan Sect, it was better for her to be influenced directly by the Dayan Sect.

After all, Dayan Sect now also had the Hehuan Sect's cultivation techniques.

And Dayan Sect was, after all, genuinely a Demon Sect.

With Lin Yao joining Dayan Sect, she would still fulfill the role of the “Demonic Tao Enchantress” in the setting, without any issues.

“Take good care of this storage bag, and only open it after entering Taixu Sect,”

Jiang Cheng handed Lin Yao a storage bag containing the Hehuan Sect's cultivation technique, along with an instruction manual he wrote, telling her to start practicing the Hehuan Sect's cultivation technique at the right time. He suggested that she should make her master aware and not be secretive about it, as that could lead to misunderstandings.

Watching Jiang Cheng take care of Lin Yao, Liang Lu felt envious, and although she didn't voice it, her eyes carried a hint of wistful complaint, seemingly accusing Jiang Cheng of favoritism.

Jiang Cheng thought to himself that being the Sect Master of Dayan Sect was indeed no easy task.

Aside from worrying about the development of the sect, he also had to ensure fair treatment of all sect disciples.

Even giving gifts required equal consideration for everyone.

“True Disciple Liang also has a storage bag. Here are some first and second-tier talismans, use them sparingly. Once they're used up, there are no more,”

Liang Lu happily accepted the storage bag, but as for Jiang Cheng's remark “once they're used up, there are no more,” she didn't believe it.

Previously, Jiang Cheng had said he wouldn't sell her life-saving talismans, but now wasn't he allowing her to use them?

The relationship just wasn't well established yet.

By staying in closer contact with Jiang Cheng, she could have access to all the talismans she needed!
